Re: Nice to see Xara get a mention..
@pauland, actually Paul I do more surfing on the pad more than I work with Xara+, and I see your point with the mention of Xara. Good or bad, whatever version of Xara, I believe Paul’s point that even the word Xara would spark some interest.
I find Xara is mentioned In a lot of places, and some of the lists are of course sketchy, but Xara is mentioned. So that’s a good thing. Xara pops up in unusual places, and mostly overseas.
Mention Xara in Canada, and many give you a side eye, so I assume that Xara is popular in the EU far more than North America.
This cloud version which I’ve explored, to me, seems to be a shot at the monthly Wordpress, and other iterations.
Cloud also is a solution if many are working on a file at once, but the Cloud Xara doesn’t even come close to Pro+.
I’m training a person on Xara this winter, but the client quite doesn’t understand that her uploads will be different than mine. I realize there is a process for working on the same file.
I’d like to know if Cloud is really working for Xara, but I’m rambling.
I know exactly what @pauland is trying to say. If someone with an inquiring mind sees the word “Xara”, it’s my hope they explore and land on the Xara home page. I know I did.
Interesting discussion. Thanks Paul for the original post.
